First of all, wow! Those 3 signings are incredible to see for Fife with Gatiyatov being the absolute jewel in the crown. I think these signings might signal that TLJ won't be coming back though although I hope i'm wrong. We have a lot of skill and speed in our forward corps just now and what is missing is the grit and bite (bad news for Stewart, the Pilon Twins to Fife rumour still looms large). On the experienced Brit front, I'd have loved to see us grab Davey Phillips. Looking around the NIHL there are options there and having brought in Preece it's clear that the team are willing to pay to bring Brits in from the NIHL. I'm more optimistic that we'll see some solid Brit depth this year with NIHL experience.

I'm more optimistic that we'll see some solid Brit depth this year with NIHL experience. honestly i’ve nothing against the guy, i dont know him personally but honestly I really dont get the clamour from the fans to bring him back. A guy Coolen never trusted to play on the pp or pk, i just dont see Coolen bringing him back in all honesty especially after the comments about not appeasing fans by bringing back fan favourites if he doesnt deem them good enough. Pilon was better on the wing but for his large majority of time here playing down the middle, im sorry but he was miles off it. My opinion is i dont think he has the skating ability or skill set to be a top 9 player in this league. If we carried 3 capable British forwards id 100% bring him back in a 4th line role but we absolutely wont get that luxury.

Let's hope their heads aren't turned by the bright lights of the Gallatown!

I’m actually incredibly excited for these guys. I could be totally wrong and it’s weirdly hard to get highlights of the continental cup but from what I read these guys absolutely lit up the Danish side and Cardiff in the continental cup this year. It’s actually mIf TLJ ends up back here, which I do think he will, our forward group is frightening. I’d also love pulkinen back but the way we are setting up id love a bit of a physical presence for the third line. I get the hype for arturs but i think musorov is who I’m most excited for. Who else in the league is signing 23 year olds from the KHL? Cannot wait for the start of this season. Let’s give these boys a good welcome to fife it will be a bit of a culture shock for sure but have no doubt we will support them in our colours

Let's hope their heads aren't turned by the bright lights of the Gallatown! The other side of these guys coming is that majority of Kazaks are muslim. Could it be we are getting 3 Imports who wont be having late nights in the local pubs like the majority of the guys who have been here.

As others have said I hope we are bringing in some size to protect these boys, we now need some size up front and at the back. But I am hopeful as TC is clearly going in a direction he feels will be successful. Also hoping we have at least one decent Brit coming, fingers crossed, then we really might have a squad that might do things.
